The tale of the little teddy bear

Once upon a time, many years ago, there was a Little Teddy Bear who had everything a Little Teddy Bear needed to make him happy He had a comfortable home to live in. He had a comfortable bed to sleep in. And, most important of all, he had a Little Girl who loved him.
The Little Teddy Bear and the Little Girl were the best of friends. And being the best of friends, they did everything together. They played in the yard together. They took naps together.
When meals were served, they sat at the table together. When bedtime stories were read, they listened together. And then they were tucked in bed together.

Lillian just LOVES her Teddy Bear she named to be 'Gorgeous' ohhh I love it!
I cherish this.

Our little getaway ...

Our little getaway ... a few weeks ago...and it was fantastic...perfect even! No need to add all the nitty details the pictures speak for themselves! we had a blast :)

 

She is my Inspiration...

When you feel the urge to just dance.... then Dance!!

...Takes my breath! ...This is the girl who makes me ... me!

Changes and Charts...

....and so she continues to grow and learn and explore and fill her sweet little soul of love, saftey and warmth, but her 'rechargable battery (never -ever- run -out) -brain has an eager love for reading and a will to really really want to learn about anything and everything..... this is what I love about her, knowledge is such a powerful tool through out life.

Going through milestones can be fun and exciting and frustrating and sad, and breath taking, they bring out every emotion, even ones we never knew we had!

My little grub is 2 and a half and quite the miss independant, and so so advanced in her milestones it takes my breath! I mean it literally takes my breath, leaves me standing here gasping for air!! she is a  little sponge and soaks everything in!
Im so proud of her! 

As every part of her continues to grow and acheive I want to be there to reward the good and keep that forever-striving attitude alive as long as it takes ... so this month I was inspired to do a behaviour chart over @ http://tabithablue.blogspot.com/2010/10/fab-finds-return-of-behavior-chart.html 
Here you could be inspired too!
Such a great Idea!

So we started today and took a trip into town, here we got some cardboard, Paints, new brushes and she had to have 'that' apron dangling down in that willow window... and so she did.

We had so much fun and the outcome was her own perfect masterpeice and a "good girl" chart.

We just drew up a chart .. nothing fancy but I did grab the idea from here @

Little Lillian

Little Lillian is made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs
And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little Lillian is made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow
And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little Lillian is made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls
And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little Lillian is made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,
And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Cherished.

Just Because...

Because It's the weekend, Because of our love for books, Because he is so good at it, Because it's just those moments, Because laughter fills our house and Because laughter makes us feel so damn good, Because I cherish him.

Because who doesnt love face painting, Because it's Butterflies & Fairies, Because she can, Because she is so darn cute, Because she cant get enough of the bubbles, and Because I love her.

Bailey's Christening

On Sunday we celebrated Bailey's Christening in the beautiful little town of Morpeth, Known to many many tourists.

Weather was great, To all that came to celebrate it with us we were so pleased and honoured to have had such great company!
A big thankyou to Gemma & Chris for taking on the honourable role as Godparents.
We all had a great time, our priest was just fantastic, full of laughter, smiles and a great sense of humour ... what more could we have asked for!?

It was a breif service but nonetheless detailed.
Bailey played the best part though, looking so cute!

My precious lil guy...

....and these precious moments make up the day!
Godmother, Gemma...

 Kasey & Bailey.. Just beautiful!

Snuggles with daddy...

My self and my perfect lil critter ...

A Cherished day!

Cherished moments

This Gorgeous Grub Girl just makes my day!
The pink, The outfit, The fact she did it all her self, Her eyes and that oh so precious voice that travels through the room in the happiest and most cheerful melody that sweeps me off my feet and sends me into the happiest daze.... " Do you like my pretties Mommy"?

 

 ...And this little guy... for being HIM.

His laughter fills the room with profound joy, His eyes fill the room with the brightest glare ... and his smile melts me to a giant puddle in the carpet beneath me, soaking me all in  ....
I sit here, watching and I truley cherish these inspiring precious gifts of ours.
I Love them to the stars and back!

Our Very Own Son

His laughter... sparkles like a splash of water in sunlight.

There is nobody else like him, he's unique - - this one. How fortunate we are that he is our son.

Sometimes, Just sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero!

 

 

Wrapped around my son with only the knowledge of the words of the world & a quiet remembrance of watching before this all began.

My Hero.
